Helping Bobbi and the Strays

I've read through several journals that Bobbi and the Strays needs to raise a large amount of money to continue their work. They won't have a shelter for the animals if we don't chip in now! Since I'm a bit lazy, I didn't do anything about it until I found out I could donate online (with either credit card or paypal.) Here's the website: www.bobbiandthestrays.org Click on the link for "Donate Now through Network for Good" and it's … read more

Trying to Help

I am still amazed at all of the vast information available on this site and all of the knoweldgeble people who are so eager to lead a hand. I could easily spend an entire day just trying to read and reply to everything that I want to see. I have been so touched by the extreame outpoor of generousity towards shelthers in needs. I have always wanted to do more volunteer work (time always being the excuse). My husband and I will actually being bringing home our first two foster pu… read more

Thank you, Zootooers!

When Susan sent me to the links to all the journal entries expressing support for us, I couldn't believe my eyes. But why is this so surprising? Animal people are compassionate people and they want to help in anyway they can. I cannot thank everyone enough for reposting, spreading the word, sending checks and coming up with ideas for us to raise the money to get a new shelter before our lease runs out. If you are just hearing about this for the first time, Bobbi and the St… read more

Calling all Creative ZooTooers: Need Help with Fun…

I'm on Student Council at my school (we're a vet tech school) and we're trying to come up with some school-wide fundraisers that are cheap and easy to do. So far we've come up with a (human) bake sale, and maybe even a doggy bake sale. We are also thinking about having a "dress down" day where if you pay $1 or something you can wear your own scrubs to school (we currently have "uniforms" each class has to wear) as well as getting some tshirts or hoodies made with our school… read more

CRUSADING FOR BOBBI & THE STRAYS - UPDATE July 23, 2008 So many journal entries have popped up in the last 24 hours appealing to all ZooTooers to help Bobbi & the Strays find a new home before they lose their current shelter, that it is sometimes hard to keep up with everything that has happened. So, I thought it would be nice to have a daily journal entry that updates everyone on the major accomplishments, providing a summary of the day's goings-on (and of course, EVERYO… read more

Ink Cartridge and Phone Recycling

This is something I just found today, maybe those of you here already know about this but I figured it couldn't hurt to post this info again. Kalamazoo County, Michigan is collecting empty ink and toner cartridges, as well as old cell phones for cash for the new shelter. If you or someone you know works for a business that throws these away, please let them know that the shelter can use them. Julie at animal services has more information and can also send flyers to your office if you would plea… read more

"Destiny is not a matter of chance; but a mat…

These wise words belonged to William Jennings Bryan, an American politician decades ago. Many ZooTooers have often expressed their sense of helplessness when reading stories of animal abuse on ZooToo news--what could we possibly do to help? Or during the Top 20 shelter tour--it felt like it was up to Fate whether or not our shelter would get the million dollar makeover in the end. Looking back, I do feel that the makeover contest was just one way by which Richard Thompson was trying to EMPOWE… read more

Help for Bobbi & the Strays

Today, I learned from susan9207 & hemcheng's journal entry "What about everyone else?" that Bobbi & the Strays' lease of the VetPort facilities at JFK airport, which is the shelter for their animals, will run out in December. They need to find another building to call home very soon or they and all of the animals under their charge will face homelessness. Bobbi & the Strays needs $1,000,000 to purchase a new facility, and right now they only have a quarter of that amount in… read more
